3.15 Selecting a location
Warning: Potential ignition source
This product is NOT approved for use in
hazardous/ammable atmospheres. Do
NOT install in a hazardous/ammable
atmosphere (such as in an engine room
or near fuel tanks).
General location requirements
When selecting a location for your product it is
important to consider a number of factors.
Key factors which can affect product performance
are:
• Ventilation
To ensure adequate airow:
– Ensure that product is mounted in a
compartment of suitable size.
– Ensure that ventilation holes are not obstructed.
Allow adequate separation of all equipment.
Any specic requirements for each system
component are provided later in this chapter.
• Mounting surface
Ensure product is adequately supported on a
secure surface. Do not mount units or cut holes
in places which may damage the structure of the
vessel.
• Cabling
Ensure the product is mounted in a location which
allows proper routing, support and connection of
cables:
– Minimum bend radius of 100 mm (3.94 in)
unless otherwise stated.
– Use cable clips to prevent stress on connectors.
– If your installation requires multiple ferrites to
be added to a cable then additional cable clips
should be used to ensure the extra weight of
the cable is supported.
• Water ingress
The product is suitable for mounting both above
and below decks. Although the unit is waterproof,
it is good practice to locate it in a protected area
away from prolonged and direct exposure to rain
and salt spray.
• Electrical interference
Select a location that is far enough away from
devices that may cause interference, such as
motors, generators and radio transmitters /
receivers.
• Power supply
Select a location that is as close as possible to the
vessel’s DC power source. This will help to keep
cable runs to a minimum.
Compass safe distance
To prevent potential interference with the vessel's
magnetic compasses, ensure an adequate distance
is maintained from the display.
When choosing a suitable location for the
multifunction display you should aim to maintain the
maximum possible distance between the display and
any compasses. Typically this distance should be at
least 1 m (3 ft) in all directions. However for some
smaller vessels it may not be possible to locate
the display this far away from a compass. In this
situation, the following gures provide the minimum
safe distance that should be maintained between the
display and any compasses.

GPS location requirements
In addition to general guidelines concerning the
location of marine electronics, there are a number
of environmental factors to consider when installing
equipment with an internal GPS antenna.
Mounting location
• Above Decks mounting:
Provides optimal GPS performance. (For
equipment with appropriate waterproof rating.)
• Below Decks mounting:
GPS performance may be less effective and may
require an external GPS antenna mounted above
decks.
